Al-Fath Mosque

Cairo, Egypt

The Al-Fath Mosque is a mosque located in the Ramses Square of Downtown Cairo, Egypt. Completed in 1990, it is one of the largest mosques in the city. The mosque's 130-metre-tall (430 ft) minaret is the tallest in Cairo and the third tallest minaret in the world. During the post-coup unrest in Egypt, the Second Ramses Incident took place in the mosque on August 16, 2013, which resulted in the death and injury of several protesters and subsequent shut down of the mosque.
